Isn't ironic that on friday my specialist asked if I was having problem with swelling in my legs? I said "no" and today my ankles are swollen up like balloons. I think they may have been swelling for a while but I hadn't realized it. I noticed a few weeks ago that socks were bugging me. My ankles were itchy. Now I realize it was swelling. Duh...

I love visiting with my parents but....

Sometimes they argue about the silliest things.   Currently it is about computer usage.  Dad says mom is on the computer at least 5-6 hours a day.  Mom says it is more like 1 hour a day.   Personally I am pretty sure Mom's estimate is the more accurate one.   The argument got heated because Dad disapproves of all the email jokey things my mom received.   Mom on the other hand thinks it is because dad resents her having friends.   Dad says it is all about protecting the computer from viruses.   Now they are sitting in the same room but ignoring each other.  Oh the tension in the room is charming! 

I love my new short hairdo! It is so very easy to take care of and style in the morning.

New Exhibit showcases the work of Tim Burton.

I sure hope to get a chance to see the Tim Burton exhibit in Toronto.  It sounds absolutely fascinating!

When setting my alarm clock last night, I accidently set the time one hour ahead. As a result I got up at 6am which was really 5 am. Unfortunately I didn't realize my mistake for over an hour.

WOOHOO! Just found $15 in the pocket of my winter coat!
